Liverpool Council has gone out to tender for a long-term replacement for Bulky Bob’s as its furniture collection supplier.
In November, the city council said it was ending its more than two-decade relationship with Bulky Bob’s - part of the FRC Group - having deemed its terms to no longer represent best value. The council had used the company, part of the FRC Group, to collect and dispose of large furniture items for residents across the city since 2000.
Distinctive purple trucks have been a regular sight in wards throughout Liverpool picking up pieces from outside homes. The last seven-year contract between the two partners ended after they were unable to reach an agreement.
